Over at the VFX RETRO EXCLUSIVE Patreon, I’m sharing a past interview I did with Phil Tippett where I (reluctantly) dived into what happened on Jurassic Park (where Phil was originally engaged to do the full motion dinosaurs in stop-motion, before ILM proved that CG was able to deliver something even more realistic). Phil, as always, was incredible gracious but also honest in his answers.
